Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You still talk about him in your sleep
And I know that you think he's just some secret you keep
I came along right when he broke your heart
You gave most to me, but he still holds a couple parts
I know that it would kill you if you knew that I knew
Let me help you let go of what you're holding on to
[Chorus]
I can be better than a memory
I can lay you down with both hands
Hold you tighter than a ghost can
Let me kiss all of that miss him right out of your lips tonight
It's just you and me
Baby, let me be
Better than a memory
[Verse 2]
You never make me feel like this won't last
But I can't see the future when I'm wrestlin' with your past
I know what's in your heart, but in your head
If he's still here between us, it's too crowded in this bed
Words can't be unspoken, but wrongs can be made right
Just keep those blue eyes open when we're turning off the lights
[Chorus]
I can be better than a memory
I can lay you down with both hands
Hold you tighter than a ghost can
Let me kiss all of that miss him right out of your lips tonight
It's just you and me
Baby, let me be
Better than a memory
[Bridge]
And I'll always be a slow hand and a steady shoulder
If you need a little love to get you over
[Chorus]
I can be better than a memory
I can lay you down with both hands
Hold you tighter than a ghost can
Let me kiss all of that miss him right out of your lips tonight
It's just you and me
Baby, let me be
Better than a memory
